Trump Plows Ahead With Plans To Dismantle Department Of Education

Two dozen states are suing the Trump administration over its decision to withhold about $6 billion in federal education grants.

This episode: senior White House correspondent Tamara Keith, education reporter Sequoia Carrillo and senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro.
